I get that it's trying to subvert the social deduction genre, but it doesn’t really do much with that.

Most of the game centers around collecting objects and not actually tricking people. As long you collect the right things you’ve won the round. People can’t really argue against the evidence. Which sucks because the fun of social deduction games is all about persuading and lying, and here that isn’t completely necessary.

The map is also pretty small. Which doesn’t really feel intentional for cultivating specific gameplay, it just feels like cutting corners. And the amount of clue types is also limited, which is concerning considering that’s basically the hook of the whole game.

The novelty of being the one who plants the evidence is cool, but when it wears off there isn’t much else to enjoy. Save yourself some time and pass on this game.
